About the episode

Dave makes an incredibly unlikely dish for him to make: a casserole.

Dave has Oscar- and Emmy-winning writer/director Cord Jefferson as his guest and makes chicken divan to try to bring him back to his childhood. The duo talk their recent trip to Las Vegas together, Cord’s unusual route to where he is today, and their philosophies on failure and success.

They talk about maintaining a worldly curiosity, trying new things, and how learning what you don’t like can be just as important as learning what you do. Then they finish with a MOIF about Vegas.
